Where is V18 at?

Hi,

this request for an update on progress is for those of us that do not have access top partners/resllers.

Would some-one in the know who is allowed to provide progress on v18 please add to this thread.

I am not after guesses or conjecture, but real timelines (give or take a month).

Ian

    Hence why you would configure the devices as a pair in HA mode - as stated before, there is no wrong or right answer DNS on a firewall appliance or not...20 years ago then yes I would agree with you, but today with the way technology and system level protection has gone, then it's not so much of an issue.

    I am not stating whether it is right or wrong, I am simply stating how it is done. You may not have seen large enterprise networks. Not a single customer of mine, be that Accenture, Verizon, T-Mobile, Ernst & Young, Lufthansa and many others that I have actually worked for have ever put a DNS or DHCP server on a firewall. That is simply the reality. You may see that a lot in small businesses, but you won't see it in large networks. Period. And there are reasons for that.

    The rules enterprises comply to such as ISO 27001, SOC 2 and PCI DSS actually even demand that services are separated, not just by machine, but also by zones and network segmentation. 

    You really have to look at the bigger picture and must not apply your small business experience. The reality in large networks looks A LOT different than in SMEs. By a pretty big margin. And I am arguing that best practices used by large enterprises should also be considered by SMEs, if they have the resources.
